"I've got nothing to clarify. It's Obama and the U.S. government. [It's] every president that came before him and every president that comes after him."

Earlier this year, Fiasco went further - accusing Obama of killing children through use of drone attacks in foreign policy:

"One hand, you have someone who is a great speaker, but kills little children--our president. I'm talking about ordering a drone attack. Ordering drone attacks that go and kill mothers, innocent bystanders, children. Militants, too, but the collateral damage. You're responsible for that, too."

So, it's somewhat surprising that Fiasco, who contributes an occasional column to the Sun-Times Splash section, was tapped to headline an inauguration weekend concert. What's perhaps not surprising is what ensued.
